Narrative:

Early morning departure sdf for iah. The clearance I read back to clearance delivery was 'derby city 1. Radar vectors pxv VOR....' upon contacting departure we were instructed to 'intercept V-4 on course.' the captain acknowledged and began the after takeoff procedure. This was the first I had heard V-4 mentioned. I started to question the captain about V-4 and his response was a hostile 'I don't have any answers for you right now!' I monitored runway heading as per the SID, figuring V-4 was further down the road. I did not have my low chart out since I thought I had everything I needed off the SID. ATC then informed us we were heading towards r- 3704A/B and gave us a vector to keep us clear. I do not believe we entered R-3704A/B. Several factors: 1) readback/hearback error with clearance delivery resulting in our not being set up for V-4.2) my failure to notice the restr area on the SID graphic. 3) I am a new/low time first officer (just off the flight engineer panel, 5 yrs in guam). 4) a grumpy/hostile captain type who had flown the same trip 1 week before, I assumed he had a plan and I went along for the ride. 5) my lack of assertiveness -- CCC works if you use it! Thanks to the alert controller who kept us in the clear!
